I am not even sure if the method that Miao Miao mentioned is the liberation I think it is. They each have their own opinions, arguing in my ear about who is the most reasonable. I can only be certain that one of them is lying, but who could it be?
Is it Wang Xu? Is it Miao Miao?
“Zhuang Jun, without evidence now, we can only create evidence,” Miao Miao's tone carried a hint of hope, and I found myself being influenced by it.
“What do you mean?”
“Think about it. Isn't Deng Xiaomei's social circle a bit strange? If she really cut ties with Wang Xu, how could someone who posts everything about her meals on social media suddenly be so calm and only delete everything related to Wang Xu?”
“What do you mean...”
“They are deliberately hiding Deng Xiaomei! Right now, you have no proof that Wang Xu cheated. Even if you divorce, you won’t get more assets. Once you actually divorce, bringing Deng Xiaomei into the picture will be the same! They are likely cleaning up evidence right now, and later on, even if you don’t mention divorce, they will bring it up themselves.”
“Am I just supposed to leave it to fate?” Every word Miao Miao said chilled my heart; I was afraid she was spot on.
“Don’t worry! We still have a point of entry—your mother-in-law!”
“My mother-in-law?” I still didn’t understand Miao Miao’s words, but her determined tone was already extending an olive branch to me. As long as there was a glimmer of hope while I stood in this dead end, I had to try.
For others, a house is an asset and security; for me, it is just a place called home. As long as I still have the ability, I cannot let Deng Xiaomei step in even an inch!
“That’s right, your mother-in-law. Have you thought about it? The lingerie that Deng Xiaomei bought online—if it wasn’t for Wang Xu, who was it for? This means that Deng Xiaomei likely has another man. As long as we can prove that Deng Xiaomei's child might not be Wang Xu's, think about it: what feelings could your mother-in-law possibly have for Deng Xiaomei? She only wants to find a tool for her son to have children. If there’s no one else, she might even consider having one for Wang Xu herself.”
Miao Miao's disdain for my mother-in-law was evident in her words. She was furious when she heard about my mother-in-law's actions.
At that moment, I was so surprised that I lost my voice for a brief time.
"How is it possible that Deng Xiaomei's child isn't Wang Xu's..."
I murmured in astonishment, and Miao Miao echoed, "This is the last resort; we can only give it a try. In the short term, Wang Xu won't reveal any clues by interacting more with Deng Xiaomei. Since Deng Xiaomei is so flirtatious, she might find another man. We can still investigate her past. As long as we gather enough evidence and present it to your mother-in-law, she'll see for herself what kind of person she thinks her daughter-in-law is!"
During this time, Miao Miao seemed to have said a lot to me. Her voice gradually faded away until she suddenly called my name, bringing my thoughts back.
"But what if the child really is Wang Xu's?"
"Are you silly? This is just a delaying tactic. Your mother-in-law is the best point of entry here. It's better to tell her first than to inform Wang Xu. She will definitely continue to interact with Deng Xiaomei, and if we can involve Wang Xu, even better. Then we can follow them and eventually find out where Deng Xiaomei is hiding."
I forced a bitter smile; indeed, I was foolish. When Miao Miao mentioned the child, I naively felt as if I had come back to life. Subconsciously, I still placed all the blame on Deng Xiaomei's child, deliberately trying to forget that what truly hurt me was the attitude of Wang Xu and my mother-in-law.
"Miao Miao, is it really impossible for Wang Xu to cut ties with Deng Xiaomei? What if this is just our speculation? I mean, what if..."
"If that's the case, we'll know once we find evidence and present it to your mother-in-law. Her attitude will show you that she'd rather kill an innocent than let one go. Zhuang Jun, you can't be passive anymore!"
